What influences the use of HR analytics in Human Resource management in Norwegian municipal health care services?
Article in BMC health services research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe centrality of human resources in the provision of healthcare suggests that Human Resource (HR) management and the use of Human Resource analytics - use of digital data to better understand, assess, plan and organize the workforce - can play an important role in this. However, data driven decision making in the field of human resource management is lagging, and the appropriation of HR analytics in the healthcare sector is limited.
aimThe current study explores the role of HR departments and the adoption of Human Resource analytics in four municipalities in Norway to obtain insights into what influences the use or lack of use of HR analytics.
methodsEmpirical data were generated through qualitative interviews with fourteen individuals working in HR departments, the municipal administration, and the healthcare services. Structurational theory guided the analysis. The findings show that none of the municipalities made extensive use of data to inform decision making related to human resource management or workforce planning. RESULTS AND
conclusionThree conditions hampered or made irrelevant the use of HR analytics: a decoupling between the services and HR, a weak data-culture, and HR and decision-making processes involving a plurality of stakeholders. However, there were changes underway in all municipalities related to the role of HR and HR analytics.
